Loughran Cappel receives Illinois Chamber’s Bridge Builder Award

CREST HILL - State Senator Meg Loughran Cappel received the Bridge Builder Award from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce.

"It's an honor to receive the Bridge Builder Award from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce," said Loughran Cappel (D-Shorewood). "Supporting Illinois' businesses has always been one of my top priorities. As a small business owner, I understand the challenges businesses face. It's important to work collaboratively with my colleagues in the General Assembly to continue uplifting businesses across Illinois."

The Bridge Builder Award recognizes two legislators from each chamber, one from each caucus, who display a willingness and effectiveness in reaching across the aisle to work together to make Illinois a more attractive place to conduct business.

"Senator Cappel represents what we need more of in the legislature, business-minded leaders that achieve results that benefit Illinois communities," said Lou Sandoval, president and CEO of the Illinois Chamber. "It is an honor to present her with this award and we look forward to continuing our work with the senator in the upcoming session."
